Our world has become plasticized. Products, packaging, transportation, medicine, clothing – we are surrounded by this material. As our demand grows our discarded material grows too, much of it ending up in the environment. We need to start changing our relationship with plastics, from the way we design, use, reuse, and recycle, to the way we build communities and economies around it. With previous generations failing to foresee the impending plastic pollution crisis, a new gen...

I can't even tell you why this happened but it surely did. One day I just blurted out to my beautiful bride: "Hey! Let's take a cruise." To my utter shock she instantly replied "YES!" Well now that is all fine but we had both limited time and resources but we were in the gap between Thanksgiving and Christmas and we have the great fortune of residing in Southern California where great weather is the norm even in late November so I began my search. It wasn't long before I...

Hello, and happy health to you all! I was lucky enough to be invited to Bulletproof Labs in Santa Monica, a 'fitness facility' dedicated to optimizing physical and cognitive performance through science. After spending four hours there, trying almost everything they had to offer, I realized that calling Bulletproof Labs a fitness facility is like calling Picasso a painter; technically it's accurate, but really only scratches the surface of the level of artistic precision they a...

Do you hate the Dentist? Most people hate going, and it makes good sense. Having someone poke and prod into one of your most sensitive and vulnerable orifices is quite intimidating. One may wonder why so many people let their teeth go, until the fears are fully comprehended. Not every dentist has the best chairside manner. Not every dentist has a compassion and understanding for what their patients are feeling. Not every dentist has the skill and expertise to competently treat...

Everyone needs to live joyously, as we were meant to, but how can we do that if we are distracted by agonizing pain signals? If you experience body pain, such as carpal tunnel, sciatica or low back pain, you may soon discover a long-awaited end to your quiet suffering. Perhaps you are not comfortable with disrobing for a massage, or you cringe at the thought of acupuncture needles or chiropractic adjustments. Certainly, for some, these are valid fears. We know the body is...
Edible Skinny was lucky enough to grab a mean morning meal at Breakfast Republic while in San Diego a few weeks ago. BR is Amy Schumer of breakfast places; its East Village location has an exterior that screams sunny disposition, but with an irreverent mind as dirty as any sailor disembarking from the Midway. For example, this breakfast joint is big on the cock (as in the Rooster). This male chicken adorns multiple aspects of decor from statues to t-shirts. The Wi-Fi...
The Thomas Gals were in action, anti-Sin City style! LA based Kelly traversed the desert for a few days of rest, relation, and good old fashioned fun! Yes we bookended the visit with an obligatory (and spectacular) sojourn to the Strip, but this trip was about the other side of Vegas, the one that most of our 42 million visitors per year miss out on! First stop was Red Rock Canyon, this popular picturesque desert park showcases a set of large red rock formations (hence the nam...

What a wonderful new addition to our capital of natural healing, Santa Monica. I found Amplify to be an interesting choice of name, because this haven is so serene, the only thing it ‘amplified’ was my need for a nap. I was complaining of nervous tension and restlessness, and just one treatment transported me into my ideal state of Chillifornia. I was treated by Licensed Acupuncturist and Master of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Yunuen “June” Beristain, who opened Amplify...
What lengths would you go to for breakthrough? You think this would be a relatively easy question to answer, right? The sad truth is most people aren't willing to take the often obvious steps necessary to achieve the breakthrough they deeply desire. Why? Because breakthrough demands something. And that 'something' is often the thing you don't want to- or "can't" give up. The good news? Breakthrough is only going to demand the sacrifice of something that's toxic or complex. And...
From the outside, Emporium Thai looks like a typical hole in the wall. It's wedged between a dental pharmacy and a thai massage spa on a busy street in Westwood. Equipped with a neon sign and classic elephant painting, it has a somewhat seedy curb appeal. Inside however, it's a warm welcome. It's a small venue, with booths lining one wall and tables on another that lead all the way back to a little black bar, a convenient place to sit and have a drink while waiting for...
